A random sample of 40 college students has a mean earnings of​ $3120 over the summer months. Assume the population standard devi

ation of earnings over the summer months for college students is​ $677 and that the distribution of earnings over the summer months for college students is normally distributed. Determine whether a normal distribution or a​ t-distribution should be used or whether neither of these can be used to construct a confidence interval.

Answer:

A normal distribution or z-test is used to construct a confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample mean, \bar{x} = $3120

Sample size, n = 40

Population standard deviation, σ = $677

The distribution of earnings of college is a normal distribution.

Conditions:

  • Since we are given the population standard deviation and the the sample size is also greater than 30.

Conclusion:

Thus, we use a normal distribution or z-test to construct a confidence interval.

If the terminal side of angle θ passes through a point on the unit circle in the first quadrant where x=√2/2, what is the exact
Serhud [2]

The exact measure of the angle is 45°.

<h3>How to get the angle?</h3>

We know that the terminal side passes through a point of the form (√2/2, y).

Notice that the point is on the unit circle, so its module must be equal to 1, so we can write:

1 = \sqrt{( \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} )^2 + y^2} \\\\1^2 = \frac{2}{4} + y^2\\1 - 1/2 = y^2\\\\1/\sqrt{2} = y

We know that y is positive because the point is on the first quadrant.

Now, we know that our point is:

(√2/2, 1/√2)

And we can rewrite:

√2/2 = 1/√2

So the point is:

( 1/√2,  1/√2)

Finally, remember that a point (x, y), the angle that represents it is given by:

θ = Atan(y/x).

Then in this case, we have:

θ = Atan(1/√2/1/√2) = Atan(1) = 45°

Solve 15 ≥ -3x or 2/5 x ≥ -2.
ipn [44]

Answer:

x ≥ -5

Step-by-step explanation:

15≥-3x

<em>switch sides</em>

<em>-3x≤15</em>

<em>Multiply both sides by -1 (reverse the inequality)</em>

<em>(-3x)(-1)≥15(-1)</em>

<em>Simplify</em>

<em>3x≥-15</em>

<em>Divide both sides by 3</em>

<em>3x/3≥ -15/3</em>

<em>Simplify</em>

<em>x≥ -5</em>
